This past week, I started a little instagram community using the hashtag #lifecloseup for all the zoomed in every day moments we all share to be collected and viewed together. I love the feeling of being apart of something bigger and encouraging people to focus on the details in life in their photos. I have been really trying to do the same in my own photography of our every day lives instead of the whole picture whatever that may be.
As promised I will be sharing my favorites every Sunday here on my blog. I want to help share other's instagram feeds that I find beautiful, amazing, inspiring, and lovely as much as share my own. If there is one thing I have loved and learned from blogging, vlogging and the world wide web is to support as many people as I can.
For my first week of favorite #lifecloseup captures on instagram, I am naming them my "festive & happy" captures. Each one of them made me feel something about the holidays or emotion. I love that about a photo. It can be from home decor, to babies, to crafts…whatever your zoomed in passion is come share it. Don't forget to check out these amazing instagrammers below who wow'ed me this week.
I am so appreciative of everyone that has joined in for my first week of #lifecloseup. I really hope it continues to grow and become a little community where we can all share our lovely zoomed in details of life. There are no rules, just hashtag your close ups, no matter what it is a capture of as all photos are welcome.
Here are a few of my own #LIFECLOSEUP this week. What do you think?
Oh you don't have to have something to fit every week I am not going anywhere darling. Look forward to your zoomed in captures.
Oh that would be absolutely amazing hunny would love you to join in.
Oh yes please do darling its' just getting started but already there are some amazing captures joining in and I share my faves every Sunday.
Thank you. I am still working out the corks in my ig feed best times to post, whether or not people prefer square vs what I normally do all various sizes etc. But I hope people will come join in. Lovely to have a small community to support each other.
Oh thank darling that's really sweet of you. I just like to share the love for my faves and spread word about their awesome feeds.
I will definitely join in whenever I have a closeup to share, and I'll be checking out the hashtag often even when I don't. Such a great idea, Jenny, and I love your selections for this week too. Not to mention that your own zoomed-in captures are so lovely!

What a wonderful idea, Jenny! I'm so glad I read through this because I'm definitely going to be joining in now. I love the support from instagrammers and cannot wait to discover and meet a few more people from this community. Thanks for sharing, and for hosting us this week on #sharewithme. Hope you're having a great week!
Whoop, whoop that's fantastic news Maria. I love hearing that and I can't wait to see what zoomed in captures you join in with. Thank you.
I love this! I never think to do things like this…then again, to be honest I never put a whole lot of thought into my photos! Ha! Such an interesting challenge…I'll have to join in!
That's why I created it firstly to challenge myself to take more zoomed in life moment captures and to share the love with so many great instagrammers too.
It's great to challenge ourselves with it and fun at the same time. Come join me and hashtag away.
Yes please do, stop by share the love and see some new feeds you might not have seen before. Such a fun community feel to it.
It's a nice idea for an Instagram community. It is very true that capturing a detail brings more meaning than including a whole scene.
I've just spent an hour browsing kids socks and I love Missy Moo's ones!
Oh I am now sock obsessed and got a bunch more for her. They are so fun and look cute with shorts and skirts for her. Definitely her type of style.
Thank you Carolyn that would be lovely. I really hope more people join in non bloggers welcome too. It's such a lovely community.
Oh thank you and I love sharing my favorites with everyone non bloggers too.
Oh that means so much to me. My instagram is slow growing but I do love it and sharing my favorites too.
